 This is a song that rapper Lil Wayne and singer-songwriter Robin Thicke made about Hurricane Katrina. Rapper Lil Wayne is originally from Louisiana and had friends and family that died because of the hurricane. Therefore, it is only right that he would express how he felt about the hurricane and how it was handled by authorities in the song "Tie My Hands." Check it out!



 Here's another song that was performed by R&B singer John Legend at the 2008 Democratic Convention. He made this song as a rallying cry to get people to vote in the presidential election and make a difference.
